Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2015061336A2] A leg restraint for side-seated vehicle occupants, and including a leg-restraining member adapted for being mounted in proximity to a side-facing vehicle seat and selectively moveable between a deployed, outwardly-extending leg-protecting position and a retracted, non-leg interfering position, and an actuator positioned operatively proximate the leg-restraining member and responsive to a signal output by a sensor for deploying the leg-restraining member upon the occurrence of an abrupt deceleration of the vehicle sensed by the sensor. The actuator includes a cushion, and is adapted for being positioned for deployment between the leg-restraining member and the legs of the seat occupant. The cushion is positioned on the actuator to cushion the legs against direct impact against the deployed leg-restraining member.
